Found this hanging around in my photo archives, circa 1997.
Installed (if you can call it that) at my sister's place in France, was a 90cm Channel master budget steel dish, set on a universal wall/patio tripod mount, bolted to a large sheet of marine ply, as I wasn't allowed to bolt into the marble patio. Found the satellite using the receiver and a portable TV, oh for the old days.
This was of course for Sky analogue and Channel Five, was quite proud of myself at the time and my sister was over the moon, having previously existed on a diet of TV series on videos sent from home and French terrestrial TV.
In fact the dish is still in use at their place near Chartres, although looking a little sad now.
